Thanks, Dave. I've folded the comments into the updated version
of the SAX event sequence version at:

    http://www.mds.rmit.edu.au/~msf/misc/SAXEvents.html

One outstanding, but simple, question:

    Are start/end entity events within DTD content reported or not?

The documentation for LexicalHandler.startEntity talks about reporting
"an entity in content" --- does that mean only entities in _element_ content?
I presume the answer is no, given that it goes on to discuss the form for
parameter entities, which are only meaningful in DTD content.
